Julieta is a ten years old whose closest friends are two boys named Pedro and Cristobal, the heirs of the prosperous hacienda "El Castillo". Genaro Valencia, the boys' father, is against their friendship because he considers Julieta to be beneath them. Near "El Castillo" lives a painter named Gabriel Almada. A series of circumstances will force him to become the guardian of little Julieta. Shortly after, he leaves town with his ward.
The years go by and we find that Julieta is now a brilliant physician.
Driven by her loneliness, Julieta decides to set up her practice in her
hometown. Gabriel, wanting to be near her and protect her, decides to
follow her. Once they have settled, the past comes back to haunt them.
Genaro's hatred toward Gabriel is rekindled, for he has always known
that the painter was his wife Sofia's true love. His son Pedro shares
his hatred because he once saw Gabriel kissing his mother. Now, he is
doubly hurt when he realizes that his childhood friend is under the
influence of this man, whom he considers despicable. Genaro brings his
niece Nadia to "El Castillo" to live with them. He expects to solve his
financial problems with the fortune that Nadia has recently inherited.
Meanwhile, Julieta discovers that her innocent childhood friendship
with Pedro has turned into a deep and true love which Pedro also feels,
but are separated by Nadia who wants Pedro for herself. Alone and
heartbroken, Julieta takes refuge in Gabriel who, by now, has realized
that his paternal love has grown into an obsession for the young woman.
Julieta is torn between two conflicting emotions: her burning passion
for Pedro, and the peaceful, secure love that Gabriel offers her. Now,
Julieta must choose between these two loves, which have haunted her
throughout her life.
